Intraoperative monitoring of motor-evoked potentials in children undergoing spinal surgery

Clinical case series. To study the combined use of modifications of stimulation methods and adjustments of anesthetic regimens on the reliability of motor-evoked potential (MEP) monitoring in a large group of children undergoing spinal surgery. Monitoring of MEPs is advocated during spinal surgery,...

Zusammenfassung:	Clinical case series. To study the combined use of modifications of stimulation methods and adjustments of anesthetic regimens on the reliability of motor-evoked potential (MEP) monitoring in a large group of children undergoing spinal surgery. Monitoring of MEPs is advocated during spinal surgery, but systematic data from children are sparse. A total of 134 consecutive procedures in 108 children
